Once again, the two great dressage riders of the world battled it out for Gold. After Isabell Werth (GER) and Satchmo had posted the best score in the Grand Prix, it was not surprising that she would also come out top in the Grand Prix Special but Anky Van Grunsven (NED) is not the reigning Olympic, World Cup and European Dressage Champion for nothing, and after Satchmo made an unexpected mistake in the special, the margin was never enough to hold the "Queen of the Kur", Anky Van Grunsven, in the final discipline as she showed all of her magic with Salinero to retain her Olympic title in style.
German team pathfinder Heike Kemmer and Bonaparte were worthy winners of the Bronze medal, holding off the challenge from the USA's Steffan Peters, despite the American out scoring her in the Freestyle on Ravel.
All the top tests are shown in full with viewers being given the option of watching the Kur tests without commentary.
